$3.25 pint can, Beer Run. Pours murky orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is resin, shit hops, perfume, light stone fruit. Flavor is resin, stale hops, old peach, perfume... this is a big miss.

$3.25 pint can, Beer Run. Hazy pale gold, hint of pink in there, with a small white head. Aroma is faint lemon zest (slightly sweet), light grasses. Flavor is slightly tart lemon, light grasses, light bread. Easy drinking, light body... not a ton of flavor, but decent.

So I like the pistachio--adds an curious woody/nutty sweetness to the beer, possibly an interesting element to add to an IPA that actually tastes like an IPA, unlike the pint we have here. Mild citrus notes come from the hops, but absolutely no bitterness is present, and the back end comes across like watered-down ice cream rather than beer. Not cloy, but the lactose and vanilla prove too much for such a weak hop profile, leaving a beer memorable solely for its gimmick. Drinkable, but one can is plenty.

Sample from can. Cloudy gold color with a small white head. Aptly named. Strong juicy hops flavor yet not super bitter. A good mix of fruit and hops but still hop-dominant. Tick.

Ever so slightly hazy pure golden coloured body with a sliver of a pure white head. Aroma of fresh and tart kettle soured mash with a dose of unfinished yeast, some light sugars, a dose of passionfruit and tropical fruit notes with a very soft soapy scent. Light-bodied; Strong sweet and super sugary flavours at first with a dose of passionfruit, guava and especially cotton candy (candy floss) with a hint of limes, salt/brine and a touch of wheat and pure caster sugar at the tail end. Aftertaste shows some subdued grassy and light yeast notes, but the upfront flavours are all the tropical fruits, grain, yeast, brine/salt and a smooth cotton candy flavour at the end that shows very interestingly, but good at the same time! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Habersham Beverage Warehouse (Abercorn Street Location)in Savannah, Georgia on 04-May-2018 for US$3,25 sampled at home in Washington just a few hours before leaving back for Savannah, Georgia on 11-April-2019 en route to Orlando, Florida for Spring Break.

$4.99 pint can, Total Wine, Gainesville. Clear gold with a small off-white head. Aroma is lots of resin and crappy hops. Flavor is resin, caramel, very minor citrus, light apple. Unexciting but not bad.

Refrigerated 16 oz. aluminum can poured into a weizen glass. Clear golden with huge white head. Aroma is cucumber, medium body, medium/lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is cucumber, melon, and brine. Really refreshing after a workout.
